8. ORGANIZATIONAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST

Conflict of Interest (COI), as defined and discussed in Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO) 9.5, Organizational and Consultant Conflicts of Interest, is a concern in all acquisitions across the Department of War. Early involvement with our industry partners is a key element of the COI process, and it is critical for the Government to be able to identify any potential COI issues as early as possible for acquisition. This would allow ample time to address and evaluate any potential COI issues, if required, prior to contract award with minimal impact to critical acquisition schedules. Interested offerors are requested to notify the government of any potential COI issues in your RFI response.

Note: All interested contractors must be registered in SAM to be eligible for award of Government contracts. The Government reserves the right to consider a small business set-aside based upon responses hereto for any subsequent action.
